Please carefully guard the security of your account and monitor use of your API keys.

Our services

We will make the Ramani Cloud Services available to you subject to fair-use and we grant you a non-exclusive, revocable license and right to:

Use the Services to develop online services and online, desktop, or mobile applications; and
Make the Services available to end users in connection with their use of your online services and online, desktop, or mobile applications.
You may only use the Services for non-commercial purposes and for commercial applications publicly accessible without charge for up to 150 seats. A seat is a distinct end user--i.e., an actual human being--that can access an application or web service you provide. Multiple users are not allowed to use the same seat, even if they use it at different times. If you want to make use of the Services outside this description, such as in private, commercial applications, please contact us about a plan tailored to your requirements (e.g. based on monthly map views). Sometimes even you don't know how popular your maps are going to be. If your account exceeds the number of map views considered as fair-use or allowed by your plan, we may charge you overage fees. You agree to pay overage fees for all usage including requests that result from unexpected traffic.

Our content

You may use the maps, map tiles, and map data hosted by Ramani’s Digital Data Library (DDL) (collectively “Hosted Maps”) through our APIs. In your products and media presentations you must provide attribution to Ujuizi Laboratories and the data provider of the Hosted Maps you use as outlined in our documentation. You understand that a subscription to Ramani Cloud that offers "branding-free maps" does not waive your responsibility to provide attribution.

Upon written notice to you, Ujuizi Laboratories or its suppliers may audit your use of the API to ensure it is in compliance with these Terms. These license Terms are intended for the direct benefit of Ramani’s third party suppliers and may also be enforced directly by those suppliers.

Your services and applications may permit end-users to cache Hosted Maps on their devices (e.g., servers, desktops, laptops, smartphones, or tablets) for offline use. However, each device must populate its cache using direct requests to Ramani and content from a cache may only be consumed by a single end-user. You may not redistribute Hosted Maps, nor may you permit your end users to redistribute Hosted Maps, including from a cache, by proxying, or by using a screenshot or other static image instead of accessing maps through our APIs. You may not scrape or download the public Hosted Maps in bulk, nor may you permit your end users to scrape or download Hosted Maps in bulk, for any purpose other than offline caching to improve performance. At our discretion, we may make limited exceptions to this policy for unauthorized use of your account if you notify us of the problem promptly. Such exceptions will be only allowed upon written notice to you, and are subject to constrains (such as caching of Content only for the duration of an international competition event, such as an App Camp or Hackaton, to improve performance).
